Creating Light Scaring, using Molds, How to attach to the skin and how to Colour

Products-

  • Wound Prosthetic (Mold wound) 
  • Pros aide Adhesive 
  • Witch Hazel 
  • Cotton Buds 
  • Spatula 
  • Palette 
  • Stipple Sponge 
  • Fake Blood 
  • Kryolan Supracolor Grease paints (reds, black, purples etc.) 
  • Transluscent Powder 
  • Brushes 


Method-

1. First, make sure that the area on the Skin is ready for application, and clean.
2. Next, cut the mold to the right shape and size and make sure that it is an appropriate size the area you want to apply it to.
3. Apply a thin layer of the Pros aide onto the area of the skin and the back of the Prosthetic.
4. Attach the prosthetic to the skin, make sure that you press firmly down on it, taking care to make sure that all the edges are also stuck down onto the skin.
5. Using a Cotton bud, and Witch Hazel, rub gently around the edges of the mold, the edges will dissolve away ensuring that the mold blends nicely onto the skin.
6. Next, apply transluscent powder to the mould, this will get rid of any stickiness caused by the witch hazel.
7. The next step is to add texture and depth to the prosthetic, apply red and purple toned Supracolors. To enhance the wound start adding small amounts of black.
9. Spray the Fixative spray to the prosthetic.
11. Finally, apply some fake blood to the wound to complete the look. 

Health & Safety-

  • Make sure that the client is wearing an apron, to protect their clothing. 
  • Be careful of the pressure you use when applying the mould. 
  • When spraying the fixative, make sure that you are not spraying too close. 
  • Be careful if working on/ around the face.
